International Military - It was also known earlier that the conflict between Russia and Ukraine was still continuing. Previously, Moscow began deploying its troops on Thursday, February 24, 2022, which they called "military operations". This war has also caused various pros and cons from various countries.
As it is known that Moscow has received many sanctions for the invasion which is considered wrong by Western countries. At the same time, Ukraine continues to receive aid from Western countries, including receiving heavy weapons in the near future.
Reporting from the defense post page, the Minister of Defense of Ukraine, Oleksiy Reznikov revealed a statement regarding this conflict. According to him, this conflict has entered the stage of a "protracted phase". This statement comes because according to him Moscow forces are trying to take over control of the eastern and southern parts of Ukraine.
"Russia is preparing for a long-term military operation," Rezkinov said while addressing the EU defense minister and NATO secretary general. Not only that, Rezkinov also said that Russian troops are currently building bulls in several areas.
However, the area is known specifically for parts of Zaporizhzhia and Kherson. This will allow the Ukrainian army to be more mobile and build defenses if it is deemed necessary. He also added that the Kremlin is currently having a new focus on the conflict that has been going on since February.
The focus is more on encircling and destroying groups of Ukrainian armed forces in the Donetsk and Lugask regions. Not only that, Rezkinov also said that Russia is creating and maintaining a land route that passes through Russia to Crimea.
Quoted from the barrons page, Rezkinov on the occasion also conveyed a request to Western allies. In this regard, he requested that Ukraine's Western allies coordinate more in arms deliveries to Kyiv.
According to him, optimizing the delivery of weapons to Kyiv will help Ukraine to become free. This assistance can also be used by the Ukrainian military in defending their territory from Moscow forces.
